here's where to find it on windows 10

Ugh, it was in mine. It's off now.

IT GETS WORSE

I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Remaining time: 3 days 6 hours

odyver

Question 2/3

How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Rarely (once every couple of years)

Never :(

Remaining time: 3 days 6 hours

odyver

Question 3/3

If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?

under 18, more inclined

under 18, less inclined

18-29, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

46-60, less inclined

over 60, more inclined

over 60, less inclined

Remaining time: 3 days 6 hours

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

Shout out to my mom who explains my transition as "Having a daughterpillar turn into a Boyterfly". It doesn't erase the fact I was an adorable little girl, and also affirms my gender now. I love my mother.

Monthly Writing Focus - June 2026

Note: for any posted works below, CWs that apply are in the beginning notes

Previous Month Goals (May)

Completed!

Yet another month without posting anything, but have been getting back into the swing of writing a bit more.

HUGE shoutout to @imasithduh for taking a look at my Post-Cazador Fight thing this month when I was having a hell of a time making forward progress (if that winds up getting posted this month, she's the #1 reason why).

Still WIP!

Post Something (fingers crossed this month is the month this stops landing in this section)

Continue figuring out wtf to do re my DAV canon (very exhausted and unmotivated jazz hands, unfortunately)

Bonus - All Items with Progress in May

Lae'zel x Ahlyris (Durge) Xan Hatching Story (currently at about 1.6K words)

Astarion x Lily (Tav) Post-Cazador Fight (currently at about 3.5K words)

Astarion x Lily (Tav) Companion One Shot to Meet the Parents (Negative) by @imasithduh (i.e., the one where they screw with their friend's parents for being assholes to said friend) (currently at about 2K words)

Part 3 of Love Against Loss (currently at about 1K words)

Elissa's Calling Goodbye Letter One Shot (outline only)

Non-protagonist DA OC one shot that I'm debating posting (relates more to my DA TTRPG campaign than the game stuff, so not sure how interesting that would be to anyone who wasn't playing at that table) (currently at about 400 words)

Current Month Goals (June)

Highest Priority

Let's get that freakin' Cazadork thing out into the world, pretty please.

Bonus

Post a second Something

And, last but not least, I'm debating how to proceed with Endurance updates. The last chapter (in my opinion) tied up a good amount of loose ends, so I see two ways moving forward:

Continue as-is (linear chapter updates, with the next chapter not being the last chapter of the work).

Wrap up the existing work with an epilogue slide sort of chapter, with the plan of continuing what I had planned afterward as one shots within the broader Choice and Chance series (may be updated non-linearly).

I haven't firmly decided one way or another, but feel free to let me know which one you'd prefer!

How would you prefer to see future updates to Endurance?

Continued linear chapter updates in the same work

Wrap up the existing work with an epilogue chapter and post subsequent one shots

This isn't one I read (I don't even go here)

anyone want to rb and tell me a fun fact abt your dragon age ocs. doesn’t have to be a warden, hawke, inq, or rook either just any of em. or all of them idc i just want to hear abt ocs today 🫶 definition of fun open to interpretation btw

katuary

I play in a DATTRPG group, and every primary player character I've created so far has started out conceptually as "one of my canon run DA protagonists, but slightly to the left". Like our first campaign I did "my Hawke, but if none of her family had magic" and second campaign was "my Inquisitor, but not from a noble family and got sent to Kirkwall instead of Ostwick."

Also have a one-shot TTRPG DA character that's one of my BG3 tiefling Tavs, but brought into DA-verse specifically because her extroverted bard ass would be adorable with Krem so.

Also also made family trees for each of my longer term characters. Biggest one hands down is my Inquisitor's, because I wanted to go back enough generations to make up how she and Dorian are (very VERY distantly) related. Think they're like. Fifth cousins twice removed in my universe or something ridiculous!

And last but not least: DATTRPG Campaign 2 Protag's late mom had an extremely enthusiastic special interest on bugs. Her husband (Protag's dad) had a knack for sewing and embroidered all sorts of bugs on everyone's clothes under her instruction and very detailed diagrams. Baby Protag's favorite were the bumblebees. 😊

My partner made this comic, and it is beautiful and amazing, and you’re all missing out by not seeing the original on paper because it’s even prettier there!

Vampire girl explaining that vampires don’t necessarily have to kill someone to drink their blood, but she did kind of kill a lot of people back when she was all depressed pre-transition: “when I was an egg I ate four dozen lads”

tentacleteapot

it really frustrates me to think about how people are inevitably going to take Remmick’s one (1) singular statement about how much he resents the way the Irish were colonized and forcibly converted to Christianity and use it as fuel for “actually he had a point” and “he was right actually” and “he’s not really the villain here” posts, when the whole point is that Remmick is, through the vampiric hive mind he’s creating, forcibly assimilating people into yet another manipulative and parasitical system. he doesn't value the cultures of the people he assimilates—notice how all the vampires he turns dance to his culture's music using his culture's dances, and how he only uses the languages or knowledge other vampires have to offer when he needs to manipulate someone. Remmick is extremely transparent about the way he sees the people he turns as resources to exploit.

he’s perpetuating a cycle that he claims to hate and resent, and I think the movie is pretty damn clear about the fact that he doesn’t see anybody as valuable or useful to him except as prey and as pawns—otherwise he would just, you know, focus solely on people who actually consent to being turned. but he looked sad in that one scene and he’s an apparently attractive white cis man so people are gonna bend over backwards justifying all the harm he did.

We want to hear from you! 📣 🗯️

Over the past two years, the mess that is generative AI has barrelled its way through human creative spaces. It’s been… a shit show.

The effects of this hostile takeover are well reported: slop, enshittification, deepfakes, misinformation. AI came straight for creative work first (because it was illegally trained on it 🙃)—and yet, beyond the (very real) concern of industry redundancies, and the (dubious) claims of AI “replacing” human creatives, there’s notably a lack of discussion about how it’s impacted creatives just being creative.

Writing, scrolling, reading online—the basic ways we live our daily creativity are being impacted by This Thing, and it deserves more attention.

We know you have an opinion—and we know it’s good. We’d love if you’d share it with us.

The survey is anonymous and takes about 3 minutes. We’ll compile some of the findings and publish for all to read. (And if you want to be quoted in a future essay or social posts, please feel free to leave your name/pseudonym or social handles in the optional contact form at the end.)

We're committed to supporting human creatives in the age of AI—and we’re working to build a human-led, human-affirming network to make sure that human creativity is protected. Because without art, we’d be really screwed.

So please, tell us how we can help! Take the survey here.

So we're all gonna let the new Harry Potter show die on the vine, right? No hatewatching. No thinkpieces. No videos about how bad it is. Deprive it of oxygen and let it wither away unremarked-upon and unprofitable; make HBO lose their entire investment and prove to the corporate entertainment sphere that the entire IP is poison. And spend that time doing something that brings you joy instead.

Hawaiʻi is currently in the midst of a natural disaster if you didnt know

Apparently there isn’t much news coverage of this outside of the islands

Towns are flooded, homes destroyed and collapsed, roads collapsed, lives at risk, gas leaks from the flood damage

Haleiwa and Waialua are currently evacuated because the 120 year old dam is at risk of bursting

Mind you that damn is owned by Dole. Theyve known about it needing to be fixed for years and years and years. Despite having more than enough money they refuse

The state has been trying to buy it out from them for years so they can fix it, but the sale hasn’t gone through

Keep in mind that the Dole family were the ones who illegally imprisoned Queen Liliuʻokalani and illegally overthrew the monarchy.

If I see another goddamn person say how sad this is for the tourists whose “trips were ruined” and compare a messed up vacation to people losing their homes, belongings, and livelihoods, I’m going to lose my mind

I am so lucky that my family or friend’s are safe and the few whose houses flooded didnt have it too bad, but so so so many were not as fortunate

If you haven’t heard anything about this until now, I suggest looking into it

The sirens didn’t go off until the flood had been going on for hours. Our state government is spending so much money on a fucking monorail we don’t need rather than fixing the infrastructure.

It’s been the locals and Kanaka doing the most to help get people to safety from the start

I don’t really know how to end this

I just need to know people are aware

I need to know people are seeing whats happening

"Don't take this storm lightly," Hawaii Governor Josh Green warned on Saturday, as more rain is expected on Oahu and Maui.

Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve.

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!

changes

It’s very clear that you all have strong feelings about Tumblr and about this change. We hear you. The passion people have for how Tumblr works is one of the things that makes this place special.

As this rolls out over the next few days and you explore it, we’ll keep reading your replies and reblogs, so please keep sharing your questions, concerns, and ideas.

Your creativity has always been the heart of Tumblr, whether you’re the original poster or adding something brilliant in the reblogs, and nothing about this change is meant to limit that.

If you’d like to talk directly beyond the comments, leave a reply and we’ll follow up with as many of you as we can. We want to work with you to make Tumblr better.

Here’s the feedback form btw. Send in the form, leave a comment, reblog, everything!

A fairly quick study from yesterday. Sadly I am not sure anymore, where exactly I got the reference from. It was very likely from https://www.fatphotoref.com I just really adore the regality and elegance of her pose.
